Fly Lah!

Answer to SkyVS questions:-

1. Yes.. As the ATCO (DCA) is a agency under Ministry of Transport.
2. Yup.. Each airlines have their own management..even firefly is under MAS supervision.. but in terms of flight operation (flight planning, scheduling & etc) they're separated.. but they still co-op each other in terms of general operation & management like code share, engineering and training..
3. Have no idea, but mostly they will count u'r SPM as a reference (i need to check this). My advice is to complete u'r Diploma, at least. This to ensure better position and better payout.. take my words.. go for Dip or better if Degree.

Hey.. this thread going so slow.. anybody from MAVA wanna share their experience???

wayne,

regarding the question i asked, for question 2, what i meant is ATCO application for airlines(AK, Mas,...) is separated from SPA..? as in apply for ATCO position in the respective airlines itself.. like erm, applying for AirAsia ATC/MAS ATC/etc...

for question 1 & 3: cleared, thanks

p.s: shud i formed another thread for this? sry if i posted in wrong thread.. I'm not so clear on where to ask this as it's been long time i'm not on flylah course

haha, better view for me.. there are only 2 group of ATCO in Malaysia if not mistaken.. Civil (DCA) & Millitary (RMAF).. but ex-ATCO still can joint other field related to Flight Operation such as Flight Planning, Ground Crew, Safety Officer & etc..

wayne..
do you know when aatco A29 intake for the next batch? coz the oral exam sudah lama..genap setaun dah...
but no any news from them....
or they already elaminate the candidate who's pass the exam last year?..

i need to reconfirm back.. but i heard a rumors that the enrollment will be somewhere around Nov-Dec this year. but i bet it would be in Jan.. i'll update later..

TQ wayne..
could u pleased told us what's different task between aatco n atc?
or aatco just control for airfield? because my frend aatco said they're only
control airfield in the rural place like Mukah..but atco only at international airport..

m.. ATC & AATCO?

ATCO = Air Traffic Control Officer - for aerodrome with a airport facilities such as CIQ and etc
AATCO = Advisory Air Traffic Control Officer - aerodrome with a airport that below some facilities.sometimes call airstrip or padang terbang. Airport with AATCO like tioman, mulu & lawas.

AATCO provide advisory service and not positive control, mean that they cannot clear acft to land or take-off. they just advise bout traffic and essential information. phraseology should be something like this:- MSWXXXX advise runway clear, wind 230/7knots. (No positive instruction given to pilot for landing). Pilot land at their own risk.. not the controller..
